    The absence of gossip or whispers yesterday tells a story in itself.

    That's it's all done and dusted and is going to be announced Christmas Morning with a picture if a bow on Flaggy?


    Or is that too much wishful thinking?
    All I want for 2018 (January ideally) is Duchatalet to sell and Trump to keel over. Is it too much to ask?

    Some libellous statements in the new VOTV

    "Mischievous" "Ironic"

    I can almost confirm “It’s Happening” after two incidents last week that just can’t be down to coincidence.
    Firstly, on Tuesday, I was on the jubilee line heading to Waterloo where I would change lines to Kennington. I over heard two guys opposite talking and one of them mentioned “due diligence”.
    The other incident just confirm the news is near. This guy in the pub last night told me that his wife’s best friend’s cousin said that she had heard from her mate’s boyfriend that there’s a buyer in for Charlton Athletic football club. Now I don’t normally listen to rumours when they come from a geezer down the pub wife’s best friends cousin mates boyfriend but this time it sounds kosher. As the boyfriend of the cousin of the wife’s best friend of the geezer down the pub is not into football. So what applies the rubber stamp is he is a middle easterner that once lived Australia and has Swiss nationality and can speak fluent Flemish.

    Bingo - let’s get this party started!

    The other incident just confines it.

    Can't have this drop to the second page

    From past experience:
    Poor performance(s)
    +
    Strong Takeover rumours
    =
    Takeover happening very soon

    When jimerez and co took over were had really bad form in league one

    When Roland took over we were struggling in Championship

    We are now in a bit of really bad form (and injuries) and takeovers are being strongly rumoured

    Just hoping the pattern continues

    Please Please Please

  • Last time I spent Xmas with the in-laws we got taken over. I'm here again this year. It's as good as a done deal on that basis.

    The Romans dug V-shaped ditches like this to protect their camps from siege.

    Is Katrien going to head to Sparrows Lane in the days before the take-over to await the helicopter rescue?

    Feels like we’ve never needed a takeover more.
    Does the radio silence from @Airman Brown and @Redhenry indicate good or bad news?

    Put not your faith in false prophets.

    The truth shall be known only when revealed upon the site that is most official.
    This particular myth was carefully unpicked recently in the good book VoTV.

    The truth shall actually be known when a wise man from the west gives his magical gesticulations and declares that it's happening.

    Wife and kids go to stay at the sister in laws today and don't come back until Saturday. If a takeover comes through I will have reasons to be happy this week ;)

    If I just predict a takeover all the time, sooner or later, I will be right. It does not mean I knew what I was talking about.
